  • The discourse of cycling in Houten

    Open AccessRobin Hickman, Ping Lü et al.ARTICLEJournal of Urban Design2025

    This paper aims to understand the critical factors behind the development of contemporary cycling practice in Houten, the Netherlands. Eighteen in-depth interviews, with transport and urban planning experts and residents, are used to examine the discourse of cycling in Houten. Beyond the cycling infrastructure, the key socio-historical factors associated with the discourse of cycling in Houten are the regional and urban planning approach, plannin…

  • Tackling the academic air travel dependency. An analysis of the (in)consistency between academics’ travel behaviour and their attitudes

    Open AccessJonas De Vos, Debbie Hopkins et al.ARTICLEGlobal Environmental Change2024

    Current trends in air transport are inconsistent with international climate goals. Without substantial changes from business-as-usual travel demand, neither new technologies nor alternative fuels will reduce emissions at the required rate. Air transport demand is highly skewed towards a small share of frequent flyers in all aviation users. While the unsustainability of aviation is well-recognised in academia, academics themselves are often freque…

  • The political economy of streetspace reallocation projects

    Open AccessRobin Hickman, Katy Huaylla SalloARTICLEJournal of Urban Design2022

    Streetspace reallocation projects are often difficult to plan and implement, attracting great controversy with residents and other actors. This paper considers two streetspace reallocation projects, in Aldgate Square and Bank Junction, London. 15 in-depth interviews are used to explore the competing discourses on each project. The analysis covers the different viewpoints on perceived problems and opportunities, project impacts and effectiveness, …

  • Car dependence and housing affordability

    Open AccessMengqiu Cao, Robin HickmanARTICLEUrban Studies2018Cited by: 5References: 20

    This paper investigates the combined problem of high car dependence and housing affordability, in view of likely continued volatility in oil prices (and hence higher petrol and diesel prices), and rising house prices. Household budgets are likely to be stretched where there are high levels of car dependency and housing unaffordability – with little flexibility for rising costs in either or both of these. A composite car dependence and housing aff…

  • Understanding Capabilities, Functionings and Travel in High and Low Income Neighbourhoods in Manila

    Open AccessRobin Hickman, Mengqiu Cao et al.ARTICLESocial Inclusion2017Cited by: 1References: 7

    Transport plays an important role in helping people to access activities and participate in life. The availability of transport networks, the modes available, new infrastructure proposals, and the type of urban development can all impact on and change activity participation, and hence contribute to social equity in the city. This article uses surveys in low and high income neighbourhoods in Manila, the Philippines, to assess the social equity imp…

  • Moving the City East

    Robin Hickman, Peter HallARTICLEPlanning Practice and Research2008

    The focus for much of London's current envisaged development growth is to move eastwards; beyond the City of London and Canary Wharf and into the London Thames Gateway. A major part of the next implementation stage (from 2006 to 2026) is to create a new future for Canning Town and the Royal Docks. This paper describes the strategic and detailed planning of a public transport-orientated development (PTOD) form around an improved public transport n…
